Heh. I'm running the America's Army demo (I'm such a cheap bastard) on my G5 (old arch) and it's fine, dandy, even. For some reason UT2004 demo didn't do so well. :-/ or maybe I haven't tried it since my G4... hrm...

Holy Crap! That's pretty far out. Guess those "standards" for video drivers/whatnot are working out, neh? FWIW, when I tried wineX, it ran that "twisted" Alice in Wonderland game faster than Windows did, but only certain games would work, and it was a PITA. So I guess it's not that far out... Just old knowledge, yet to be purged, tickling thoughts. (winex was a DirectX emulator for linux). So really there is no reason for anyone not to go mac, > 'Cept price... and I bet there are "edge" *cough* cases for running MS stuff... But I agree, a great platform! Installing CF was a breeze, and I'm liking their servers... and what a UI! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:244008 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
